I hope the tribal supremacist Akadu will be happy with these list. At least we have 3 Akans, 2 gas, One Ewe/Northner a piece.

These should make Mr. Akadu happy today. He has been bitter for far too long.

When Kwaku Baako informed us about the atrocities of Kwasi Pratt during PNDC Regime, some of us did not believe until the truth was confirmed during the NRC. Kwasi Pratt is the most dangerous Journalist Ghana had ever have, he had the gut to recommend his fellow journalists to be executed by PNDC. Pratt even recommended Baako to be killed by the regime, thank God Baako was instead touchered violently and severely but his life was spared. This is what Kwasi Prat can do. Now Pratt is a secret agent to NDC and US Embassy in Ghana. May God forgive Prat and spare him the untold evils that will come upon him and his generations. The souls of those journalist killed through Pratts recommendations to PNDC will never forgive Pratt. Now Patt has the gut to take Diplomatic Passport and smuggled his weak-headed children to work at the Ministries under Mills NDC, may God forgive Pratt and his dependance and spare them of the evils ahead of them...

This will go a long way to change the dynamics of political appointments. Brilliant statesmanship from President Mahama, now lets see which of these ministers really want to have to be reconsidered for the job. NPP is totally eradicated from Ghanaian honest politics. All its members should find solace with the CPP, PPP or some other PP. Many years back I always speculated that the only people who can make Ghana as great as Nkrumah (Nzema) really had envisioned would be a Ga or Northern President - all others never to be trusted.

You might be wondering how I came up with these list. Its very simple in this day of computers. Just google ministers under Rawlings and all the Akan (converted) Ewes according to your doctrine will pop up....lol

Why do u think am not a northerner? Do u think every northerner is HARUNA's boy?? Do u forget that some people in HARUNA own constituency voted for JM and voted against Haruna. Please note that NPR votes went above 30,000 in HARUNA constituency. Please stop that thinking that HARUNA is the best northern politician. What has he done in politics? The small money he looted from the ministry or the grade c he scored when they assess the minister?.

I agree with those who have suggested that these appointments are more for party expediency and political correctness. Rather disappointing after the initial success. I suspect the NDC stalwarts are flexing their muscles for ministerial rewards. I hope the president will not allow them to sway his judgment in his appointments.

Mahama has done his best to satisfy everyone. Voltaians and Central Region have had their day for far too long. Let others have their chance. For the record, oil minister is from western.

AH, IT MUST BE SAID. THE CURRENT NPP LEADERSHIP LED BY MOONSHINE HEAD NANA AKUFO ADDO ARE FOOLS, THEY ARE FOOLS. THE YOUTH SHOULD HAVE A REVOLUTION AND THROW THEM OUT OF THE PARTY FASTER THAN THE SPEED OF LIGHT. NPP JUST THE LOST THE ELECTION. NOW NPP ARE LITERALLY POUNDING SAND BY GOING TO COURT. TOTALLY USELESS. NPP ACTION HAVE ALSO CREATED A NEW POSITION FOR AN ACE LAWYER LIKE TSATSU TSIKATA WHO WILL WIN THE CASE IN COURT OR ULTIMATELY AIM AT DRAGGING THIS CASE FOR AT LEAST 30 YEARS. OH, THE CURRENT NPP LEADERSHIP ARE FOOLS. UNTIL THE YOUTH IN NPP THROWS AWAY THE CURRENT LEADERSHIP OF NPP TO BE RAPED ONE BY ONE IN THEIR ANUS BY A CRAZY HEADLESS-HORSE WITH A LONG DICK, NPP WILL BE IN OPPOSITION FOR 72 YEARS. I REPEAT. NPP WILL BE IN OPPOSITION FOR 72 AT LEAST YEARS.

President Mahama should be commended for choosing the right person in charge of Energy and Petroleum ministry. The one most important position as far as the oil revenue, dispensation and the stability of the oil production are concerned. We wish Mr. E.A.Kofi Buah, when the position is confirmed, well! All Ghana well-wishers who are yearning for a better Ghana in the immediate future must join with me, however premature, to congratulate Mr. Kofi Buah and extend our gratitude to the President for choosing a competent and a trustworthy person to keep the Energy and Petroleum portfolios.

So far agreeably he has picked potentially very capable people , whether or not they are actually bold , courageous and competent enough is another matter as most of these people stood by to save their skins while atrocities and evil mismanagement not to forget corruption went on . yes they are better than the previous bunch who only started doing things in the last year of their mandate so they could have projects to use as bargaining chips to retain whatever posts or favour they can, stress again none of the projects were there's in the first place and some had been in the sistem 4 to 10 years and all of a sudden parliamentary approvals , hoodwinking us into thinking they really cared . mr president be wise and assess your ministers every 6 months and if they are not performing move them out , dont wait and keep incompetent , lazy .evil minded corrupt fools in place
